Description: This contemporary Kufic calligraphy painting is inspired by a poem by the Iranian poet Sohrab Sepehri, beginning with the words
“من چه سبزم امروز و چه اندازه تنم هوشیار است!”
“How verdant I am today, and how keenly alert my body feels!”
The entire canvas is filled with words and letterforms transformed into Kufic-style structures, creating a dense and continuous visual field. The use of different green tonalities reinforces the connection to Sepehri’s imagery of nature, growth, and renewal.
The words are not presented simply as readable poetry; they become interconnected visual forms, allowing Persian language to move between text, geometry, and abstraction. Through contemporary Kufic calligraphy, the poem is transformed into a visual landscape in which colour, repetition, and letterforms evoke a sense of growth and vitality.
